Great Britain is testing new long-range missiles that can theoretically reach Moscow, reports The Telegraph.
We are talking about missile systems carrying about 250 kilograms of warheads and having a range of more than 400 kilometers. According to the newspaper, this weapon may be transferred to Ukraine in the near future.
According to the newspaper, the new systems have been tested at a test site in the Hebridean Islands, and additional tests are planned for the coming months. It is noted that the missiles will develop a speed of about 600 km/h.
British companies MBDA, MGI Engineering and Rotron Aerospace won the Nightfall missile development competition last year. The project is implemented within the framework of the Project Brakestop initiative, the initial funding of which was about 5 million pounds, and later another 15 million pounds was allocated for it.
